Hedges in a hurry™ — See It in Action

Watch how a landscape company installed Living Walls™ instant hedges in a single day — and transformed this property almost immediately. This video shows the speed, structure and visual impact of our instant hedges once they’re on site.

Twining Valley Nurseries does not provide an installation service. You can either plant your hedge yourself using our Planting Guides, or engage a local landscape contractor and share the guide with them.

A quick note before you watch:
This video shows a real, site-specific installation. It’s designed to visually support our written instructions, not replace them.
For best results, always follow the steps in our Inground Planting Guide, using this video as a helpful visual reference.

Installation conditions vary, and anyone carrying out planting — whether a homeowner or contractor — is responsible for following health and safety practices and assessing their own site conditions..

FAQs

• Do I need a wooden edge like the one shown in the video?
  Not at all. The mowing strip shown was the homeowner’s choice to make lawn maintenance easier. It’s not a container — roots grow freely beneath it. If you choose to add one, keep it shallow (10cm or less).
• What should I add to the trench?
  Nothing extra. Avoid soil amendments such as compost or garden mix—they’re not needed. Simply backfill with the soil you removed from the trench.
• Should I cut each hedge in half?
  Only if you need a shorter length (for example, half a metre). If cutting is required, use a saw — not a spade — and cut carefully between plants to protect the roots. Full instructions are in the planting guide.
